We want a spiritual message but our group is made up of people from different religious traditions. Will Fr. Vazken proselytize through his message?

We work with the client to provide a program that includes exercises, for the most part these are extended over a period of time. An initial team building exercise will be followed up with an analysis of the dynamics and players. Subsequent exercises will be scheduled usually in a one to two week time period.

To what extent do the cultural attributes of Armenians play into his talk? Does the crowd he addresses have to be Armenian to “get it”?

Fr. Vazken is a story-teller. In his speeches, Fr. Vazken draws from stories and real life situations, sometimes from Armenian history, but all the time within the context of the present day. Most of his public speaking engagements are to audiences that come from various cultural and ethnic backgrounds who applaud his message with enthusiasm.

In picking out a keynote speaker for our event we have many options, why should we invite an Armenian priest?

Armodoxy is one of the most ancient of all spiritual traditions. The message therein has yet to be discovered by world, particularly in the West. As a priest, Fr. Vazken is about the celebration of life. You’ll find his message new and refreshing. It’s like none other you’ve heard.
